The mission of the Utah Women & Leadership Project (UWLP) is to strengthen the impact of Utah girls and women.

The UWLP was founded in 2009 by Dr. Susan R. Madsen, who leads this work as part of her faculty position at Utah State University.

These collections of videos are valuable resources for girls, women, and those who influence them.
